Motherboar P55-GD65

Hello,
I have MB P55-GD65, i bought 2 HDD Segate Baracuda 1Tb, and i want to connect tham in Raid0. I change everyting in bios for that, appears screen there i must hit ctrl+i, i creat from this too disks 2 partitions one 50gb for windows and the rest off tham for data. I start the instalation, everything go ok, but after restart, when is "complyting instalation" appears message "Windows setup could not configure Windows to run on this computer`s hardware". I've tried all sorts of variations, but all times appears that message. There coudl be a problem, somting else must be changed in bios? It`s first time then i set up raid0, pls halpe me. Sorry for my bad english :(

Occasionally it does with MP3's. But the large majority of the time it is some type of web content (youtube, a flash video, an apple trailer, etc) - it's only done it once so far in a game.

Problem with sound in p55 gd65

hello
i have a problem in my system and i dont know its from mainbord or other devices
when i playing game or watching movie,suddenly the sound is cutting down(stoping) and cpu usage going up(25 or 30 %)
in game i had no sound and game play was with tik and also in watchig film
this problem is not always happend but im comfused
main msi p55 gd65,cpu intel core i5 2.66 ghz,ram 4gb ocz 1033,graphic ati 5770 sapphire,power icute 950w,hdd WD 1tb

Use MSI Afterburner and set lower or fixed clocks for the graphics card.Enable Unofficial OVerclocking and set a fixed 2D clock to be applyed at start up ,see what happens.
Play a little with the 2D/3D clocks.I ve saw somewhere on a forum a issue with a similar mobo from some other vendor and another video card.The problems of that user stopped when he lowered the clocks of the video card.
You are using a 5770 which does a lot of frequency/voltage switching while in desktop.

P55-GD65 takes long time in BIOS before booting

Did a search on "long boot" but nothing relevant.
Sorry if this has been already covered.
First MSI board after two Giga-bytes:
P55-GD65
Core i5-650
2x Corsair XMS3 DDR3 (DDR1333), total 4GB
ATA133 HDD
SATA DVD-RW
MSI R4550 graphics card
Windows XP SP3
The system runs OK as it is, although I haven't really beat on it yet.
It just takes a really long time in the BIOS before it gets around
to booting the system.
Power up to initial BIOS screen 14 sec
Shows "USB Device(s)..." for about 45 seconds, then shows the
ATA and SATA devices for an instant, then blank screen.
35 seconds after that to Windows boot
Is there any setting I can tweak to speed this up?
I had hoped this rig would be faster than the GA-7DXR+Athlon
XP 1.9 it is hopefully going to replace.
I read another post about memory timimg, but BIOS shows 1333.
Thanks all...

Is my P55-GD65 dead on arrival? No response at all.

I'm not getting anything out of my new board. I've built many systems before, but this doesn't seem to be working right. I've got:
- power supply connected at both the main power connector and the 8-pin aux power connector
- CPU installed with fan plugged in
- 2 DIMS of RAM installed
- video card installed with PCI power plugged in
- no front panel connections
- board is sitting on my table, not in the case
When I flip on the power switch on the PS, I don't get any LEDs on the board lighting up. I couldn't find anything in the manual about a power LED except for the 6 CPU voltage phase LEDs across the top of the board, but I don't know if those should be lit without the machine fully on or not.
Should the power and OC'ing buttons at the bottom be backlit when the machine is off? Shouldn't I be able to use the power button on the board to power up the machine without the front-panel switch? I get no fans or drives spinning. Should I be getting any voltage readings from the test pins when the machine is off, or only when running?
I tried my old power supply with the same results.
I'm guessing the board will need to be returned, but I just wanted to get a second opinion.

Thanks for the replies.
Before I pulled the board out of the case to test it on my table, I did try powering up the system from the front panel power button. When that didn't work, I removed the board from the case in the event the board was shorting out in the case.
I'm assuming that the power button on the board itself should work to turn the system on instead of shorting the pins for the front panel button.
So, on the P55-GD65 specifically, should there be any LEDs lit on the board when the PSU is on, but the computer is powered off?
Thanks

[WTA] MSI P55-GD65 6 phase on all the time? Where's APS?

Hello, First Post here..
I bought a MSI P55-GD65 lately and it runs spectacular and overclocks nicely. the newer BIOS 1.6 is noticably more stable when High VDroop is used than the BIOS 1.5, resulting in more power-efficient system of my own despite overclocking .
But nonetheless, i have some issues i would like to be answered:
1. When I use BIOS 1.5, the core voltage would be dropped to 0.896 (CPU-Z) when i set the core voltage as auto and all the power saving features enabled (C1E & EIST Enabled, C6 state selected, Turbo Mode off). but when i flash into BIOS 1.6, the same setting does not result in decreased voltage, the core clock still slows down though like it used to be. Maybe the next revision of BIOS will fix it?
2. I searched this forum about APS on P55-GD65, i have found that somebody here had testified that the BIOS 1.6 fixes the all-phase-working problem, as i was having the same problem too. Then i decided to flash to 1.6 too (which work flawlessly with your USB Flasher by the way, kudos ). But the problem still persists. APS only works when i apply through Control Center. i wonder about APS statement of "will work regardless of operating system" is a true and automated one. And yeah, i have tried to clear CMOS and run it on nominal mode and still no changes from BIOS 1.5. The 6 phase LED is lit all the time unless i "apply" in Control Center.
My Current system are:
MSI P55-GD65 (Lotes ILM)
I5 750
HD 5770
Silverstone Zeus 750Watt
WDC Black 500GB
Windows 7 Ultimate
Thanks for your attention.

Quote from: chrisjb on 19-January-10, 17:13:56
you have to run the cpu at default settings so (133mhz X multiplier) the slight overclock of the cpu will disable power saving so all the phase leds will constantly be lit up.
Have the multiplier running at 160 because of XPM 1600 memory blocks, and the board runs with 2/3 phases in normal mode.
Are using BIOS 1.3 because of XPM problems with other versions.

P55-GD65 BSOD Issues, Help very much appreciated!

Hi Guys,
I recently bought a new PC with a P55-GD65 motherboard and Im getting a lot of blue screens.
I started a topic on SevenForums and attached all dump files but it seems the problem is hard to pin down.
The topic and dump files can be found here: http://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-debugging/48197-please-help-bsod-new-windows-7-x64-pc.html
Im using the latest BIOS (1.5), Im running Windows 7 x64 Home Premium with latest updates and Im using the latest MSI drivers for the Motherboard.
The only software installed is:
- Eve Online client
- Steam and Modern Warfare 2
- Teamspeak RC2
- MS Security Essentials
- PC Angel (revovery software)
On SevenForums I was advised to check my harddrives, I runned HD Tune and my drives showed no errors.
I was also advised to run memtest, Im running it for over 4.5 hours now without any errors.
I realy dont know what I can do anymore. Do you guys have any advise what else I can try?
I have changed nothing in the BIOS itself and Im not overclocking the system.
Should I manually adjust some settings maybe?
Below is my hardware configuration:
CPU: Intel Core i7-860 2899 1156
Motherboard: MSI P55-GD65 (BIOS 1.5)
Memory: 4GB (2 modules of 2GB): OCZ Platinum Low Voltage OCZ3P1333LV4GK

P55-GD65 Problem Freezes / Shuts Down unexpextedly

Hi all,
I've recently received a replacement P55-GD65 part for my pc upgrade. The first mobo was broken but I'm not sure wether the current one is any better.
I have a freezing problem with my set up. After I power up it goes to post and lauches windows. However, within 5 to 10 minutes the system just shuts down on its own. Sometimes this happens already in BIOS when I've been looking around for a solution for some time.
After power down pressing the power button doesn't help. I have to disconnect power cord from PSU and wait a bit before reconnecting for the power button to work again.
I've been reading other posts and people have the similar problems, but none of the solutions have resolved my problem.
I've tried putting OC genie on - no solution.
I've tried using only 1 memory - no solution. and yes I've taken the memories out and reincerted them.
I've tried setting BIOS to optimized defaults - no solution.
I've tried setting memory speed down from Geil automatic 1333MHz to 1060MHz - no solution.
I've tried setting memory voltage up from Geil automatic 1,5V to 1,6V - no solution.
I've tried taking CPU out and replaced it in the socket - no solution.
I've updated Intel drivers from MSI website.
I've updated other drivers from the CD that came with the mobo.
BIOS version is 1.3
There has been a lot of discussion about corsair memory modules but none about the GEIL ones I have. Has anyone experience with the memory I have? According to MSI website P55-GD65 is tested with a dual setup of 2g Geil memory that I have, and should be ok.
Can anyone lend a hand so that I can get my pc running. This has by far been the most troublesome upgrade for me.
Thanks for replies!

TheManitee, 1st you hijack this thread demanding help and you don't even have the same MB & other parts. Please start your own new topic instead of hijacking another persons. >> Please read and comply with the Forum Rules << >> Posting Guide <<
To me it looks like not a single one of you has bothered to up date BIOS which has over time had numerous memory compatibility fixes.
Update BIOS, get Crucial RAM.
>> Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher <<
I am not able to update the bios because my pc would crash before allowing me to. I asked MSI to update the BIOS before sending the board to me.

P55-GD65 registers only half of memory (now won't even boot)

Hi
i have big problem with deployment of new system. Specs :
MSI P55-GD65
Patriot Sector 5 PGV34G1600ELK 2X2GB
Intel i7 860
CHIEFTEC 500W
NV 7900 gs (connected for diagnostic reasons)
First, BIOS recognized only half amount of RAM (2gb from 4gb)
-updated BIOS to 1.5 - nothing changed
-cleared CMOS and restored defaults - nothing changed
Second, i tried to instal win7/win2008r2 - freezes after installation booting progress bar disappears (tried to boot from USB key and from network deployment server)
Then, i tried to install win2003 - success! but system works unstable (eg once frozen at cinebench multicore test, once BSOD while booting etc)
CPU-Z recognized properly amount of installed RAM (and said that dual channel is disabled), but system still says that is only 2 gigs of ram.
Then, i found on this board that CPU bented pins could cause the problem, so i checked pins, and they seems to look fine (Hi res photo of pins)
After i mounted CPU back, the system event won't boot - all six CPU phase diods on main board are active, fans turns on, but boot process won't start.
Anyone know is there any way to fix it? (before i give back everything to vendor)

i just bought my MSI P55-GD80 yesterday. i just hope i wont be getting the same issue as some other guys do.
im planning on building my new rig tomorrow because i dont have my memory cards and video card yet(might get these items tomorrow).
so yeah, i will be checking the CPU seating. will try to seat it once then remove it for the pin contacts checking. and i hope too that the mobo i got has at least the 1.4 BIOS version, because to tell the truth i never done any BIOS flashing before(actually ive done it once with my XPS 630i rig and it went easy for me to do. i dont know whats the procedure for the MSI boards so no idea at all). and to tell the truth, this is my first time building my own rig so im a bit excited and i prioritize durability(long lasting) and always hoping not to get any problem building my very own rig for the first time.
**so here is my question :
how will i know if the CPU pad doesnt have a good contact with the socket pins?
what should i do if after checking i find out that my CPU pad doesnt have a good contact with the socket pins?
what if after checking i find out my CPU doesnt have good contact with the socket pins but with my GD80 reading 4gb of my memory cards?
if you wanna know where i got my board, i bought it here in japan from a known computer parts retailer. and yes im living here for now and its really hard for me to return my product if its faulty because, first im not that good at speaking japanese language, and second they might have different procedure for returning products that i might not know.
thanks in advance, will appreciate any help and reply,
Skaahr
***edited : i just checked the sticker from my mobo which i read from the other topic that tells it shows the BIOS version in your mobo, the tiny green sticker shows me this " IMS140 " does it means i have the 1.4 BIOS version?

Does MSI P55-GD65 support eSata hot-plug?

I believe the title is self-explanatory, but I'll explain anyway..
I have a MSI P55-GD65 motherboard which has an onboard eSata port. I have a second eSata port in the front plate of my case.. The thing is, that the only way for it to recognize my eSata external hard drive, is if the drive is connected and powered BEFORE I boot my PC. Not very convenient when it comes to portable devices. Is there anything I have to change in the BIOS or any drivers I should install (for Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit) so that I can power on and off my drive while my PC is working?

Actually, I did some more digging after my post, I figured out how to do it (I tweaked the registry because I had installed Windows 7 with sata mode set to IDE), and now it works fine..
There's only one issue. My external drive does not appear in the devices I can "safely remove". So I don't know how risky it is to just turn of my HDD while the PC is powered on..

BIOS doesn't change CPU Voltage P55-GD65

I have a P55-GD65 with BIOS Ver 1.7
No matter what setting I put the the CPU voltage it seems to run in auto only. I have tried many combination's of settings that I have read on the forums but nothing seems to be working.
Has anybody had this problem?
Thanks,
Mark

Yes even when I have Intel C-STATE and Intel EIST disabled.
The voltage is much lower. I can't over clock because I cannot up the CPU voltage. I have the CPU multiplier at 21 and the clock at 155. If I go even up to 156 on the clock my system will blue screen.
When I put the voltage in Auto and monitor it and then put it in manual and crank it up to 1.45 and monitor it the voltage behaves as it is in auto. I have XMS 1600 memory and the Mugen B rev 2 cooler so I know that is not an issue. I might have a defective MB. I've been building PC's for years so I'm not a newbe. I've usually used Supermicro boards and this is my first MSI board. The board is very nice and if it worked it would be great. I was going to build another system with that board but am a little gun shy now.
Thanks for all your help.

Trim Support in RAID 0 on a P55-GD65

I have some confusion regarding TRIM support in RAID 0. I have 2x80 GB Intel X-25M G2 SSDs in RAID 0 on a P55-GD65 mobo. I am not using a RAID card, and my OS is Windows 7 Ultimate x64. I just flashed the latest firmware update for the drives. According to the Intel SSD Toolbox, TRIM is not enabled. I have the latest Intel Chipset Drivers from Intel's site rather then the MSI downloads center. After doing some reading it sounds like if I back up my data, set the drives to ACHI rather then RAID, rebuild the array, and restore my back up, the drive will support TRIM. Is that correct?

If I am not mistaken, "TRIM" is generally a no-go in RAID-Mode conigurations.

P55-GD65 BIOS bug

Hi! I`m having compatibility problems with my imon remote/reciever! It is supposed to turn the computer ON but the BIOS won`t let it! There`s no option in the BIOS for turning on the computer by USB device! It works by shorting the power button pins, but if the USB cable is connected it doesn`t work.

Songokussm the same issues I reported to support, they responded to me, that my MB is faulty and I should RMA ( did it twice, 4 month without MB ) I prove them otherwise, I had 3MB P55-GD65 with the same issues. Short speaking every MB with ERP=040 is faulty on engineering level Overvoltage like you described, problems with fans on sysfan1 and sysfan2, restore AC on power loss not working correctly and sometimes USB2 stops responding.
My conversation with MSI support ended when they statement that they can`t check if I`m correct because they don`t have MB with ERP=040, so the problem is .... gone I bet that with bios 1.9 in your case issue still occur but is`t less "visible".

Connect Be Quiet PSU RPM control connector to P55-GD65

Hi All,
Apparently you need to connect the RPM control connector that comes with the Be Quiet PSU to the Power Fan connector on the mobo.
Cant find thsi on the P55-GD65, where should I connect it too=
Thanks in advance for any help-

Apparently you need to connect the RPM control connector that comes with the Be Quiet PSU to the Power Fan connector on the mobo.
Please don't!! It will fry the mainboard circuits.
Why do you think this is necessary? The mainboard has a fan controller and the CPU has one. These are seperate circuits & operating procedures. Under no circumstances should they be "connected".

What makes this seem an "apparent" step?

New P55-GD65 System with old already installeWindows 7 doesn't boot, Blue screen

I just built my new system with these specs
1. Core i5
2. P55-GD65
3. Kingston 2x2gb 1333Mhz DDR3
4. MSI N275GTX Twin FROZR
5. 650watt PSU
6. Sony DVD/CD RW+
7. BIOS Ver 1.2
I had a 500gb SATA WD HDD which i used with my old system, with windows 7 ultimate 32bit and windows xp 64bit installed. It was working pretty fine with that system. When i built this new rig, i installed the same HDD with it but wt i now face is that my win7 doesn't boot. Soon after windows 7's logo appears, the system reboots after a short blue screen. On reboot win7 asks for a startup repair . . . when i go for it, it fails to repair. I get the following thing in error;
Problem event name: StartupRepairOffline
Problem Signature 01: (win 7's version is listed here - the same goes for Prob Signature 02)
Problem Signature 03: Unknown
Problem Signature 04: 21201167
Problem Signature 05: AutoFailover
Problem Signature 06: 6
Problem Signature 07: CorruptAcl
Locale ID: 1033
I even tried to go for Repair through Windows 7 CD but in vain.
Can anybody help me here. I really don't want to go for a fresh installation.
Regards,
Bkee
P.S
My XP 64bit works pretty fine wid it although some drivers for "SM BUS Controller" and "Base System Cannot" can't be found.. The problem is only wid win7.

Quote
will give a try to install msi drivers using my old system and then connecting the HDD back to this new rig.... Hope it will work...!!!!
That activity is pointless. You cannot install drivers for stuff that is not there on your old system.
Please do yourself a favour and stop dancing around this whole problem (which seems like a pseudo-problem to me). Putting on a fresh installation of the operating system is the first thing that should be done on a new system configuration. Even if you manage to get stuff working without reinstalling, you are working with a potential driver mess and a confused Windows Registry that may throw problems at you that you may currently not be an issue.

Nothing than troubles with this one.this is my first MSI board and it will be my last MSI board nothing then troubles with it
When i remove the webcam from the system the PC starts automatic again.

I send the modules back to the shop on RMA before I read the above suggestions. Hope you do not mind guys!
My opinion at the moment is that I have done a whole lot to make these modules work, more than you can expect from a customer. As far as this goes, I believe the modules should be able to run at standard settings (timings, voltage, etc) on any motherboard. I am not interested where the responsibility lies for the manufacturers of either hardware, but the whole thing seems to be lacking standardization (if at all possible with this kind of hardware). Maybe I am to narrow minded in this, but that’s the reason I send them back. Apart from being a hardware and computer enthusiast, I am also still a customer with certain expectations.
It looks like the shop agreed because, after receiving the modules via the RMA procedure they replied (translated from dutch):
Quote
Dear xxxx
We have tested your returned product(s). The results from our test indicate that the product is indeed faulty.
We will contact you as soon as possible to discuss further steps.
Since the receipt notification (of receiving the package I send) and the notification above were only 1 minute apart, I have reason to believe that they did not test the modules at all (or did not care what the result is).
I do wish to express my gratitude for your help, without your help I could not have come this far! Thanks!
@utgamer2004: I hope your RMA will be granted as well, my experience may be positive but this will depend on the shop or the manufacturer.
